Rod Action

Vapen

The Vapen features X-Wrap construction, a layer of super-high density carbon ribbon that is also counter-wrapped on the exterior surface. This radical departure from typical graphite construction allows for maximum vibration dampening, increased strength, torsional stability, and improved tracking. This is fast, powerful performance at its best.

I have this rod in a 9'6" 6 weight and it has more power than much pricier rods. I have used it for everything from dry to heavy streamers. It is a very fast stiff rod, however if you are gentle, it can produce gentle presentations. This rod excels in throwing heavier lines and big flies with ease. It has "easy" power, which means you don't have to work hard to get long casts out of it. This is the reason I would recommend this rod to someone looking for a streamer rod, it wont beat you up. If you simply back off the power the rod will do the work for you.

When I first casted my five weight 9 foot vapen I was truly amazed about how fast it Casted and how it brought in a fish with such ease. I have caught anything from bass to bone fish on this light weight rod . I would highly recommend getting one if you don't already have one.

I bought this rod in 10' #7 to use for sea trout and light salmon on the wider sections of the rivers I fish here in the UK. I was looking for a rod that could roll cast and single spey well as some of the best pools are often quite heavily wooded. This rod can do all that I want it too and a whole bucket of eggs more.
I can single spey, double spey, circle-c, and snap-t with ease as well as deliver long and short range overhead casts. One of my guide friends easily managed to overhead cast the full fly line.
Most of my sea trout fishing is at night and it's important to have a solid feel for your rods action when casting in the dark. Within a few hours I found myself subconsciously hauling, singled and double, without needing to see what the line was doing.
The blank has plenty of power for when you need to pour the sauce but it's responsive too. With fish fresh from the sea too stiff a rod can sometimes pull the hook free, I have hooked and landed enough sea trout with my Vapen to know that I'm not going to have that problem.
This rod is a serious weapon, I would recommend it to anyone - as my friends will testify!
